Michelle Troconis is facing trial in Stamford, Connecticut for her alleged role in helping her lover Fotis Dulos conceal the murder of his estranged wife and mother of his five children, Jennifer Dulos.

At the time of her disappearance in May 2019, Jennifer – whose remains have never been found – was in the midst of a bitter divorce and custody battle with Dulos. Investigators believe Fotis killed her in the garage of her home and that Ms Troconis, Fotis’ then-girlfriend, helped him cover up the murder.

On Wednesday, jurors were shown a so-called “alibi script” from the day that Jennifer was last seen alive.

In the notes, Ms Troconis wrote that she started that day by taking a shower with Dulos, before taking her daughter to school.

Prosecutors allege the notes were written to try to cover both Ms Troconis’ and Dulos’ tracks that day.

Jurors also saw a bloodstained long-sleeve, striped Vineyard Vines shirt that Jennifer is believed to have been wearing on the day she was killed.

Fotis killed himself in 2020 after being charged with murder.

Ms Troconis is charged with conspiracy to murder, tampering with evidence and hindering prosecution.
